Calculation process of conversion value

1 knot = `((1852/3600)) / (1.4)` = 0.36746031746032 walking speed
1 walking speed = `(1.4) / ((1852/3600))` = 2.7213822894168 knot
? knot × `((1852/3600) ("m/s"/"knot")) / (1.4 ("m/s"/"walking speed"))` = ? walking speed

High precision conversion

If conversion between knot to metre-per-second and metre-per-second to walking speed is exactly definied, high precision conversion from knot to walking speed is enabled.

Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!
